Background
IPL 2021: Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) vs Rajasthan Royals (RR) will be played at Mumbai's Wankhede Stadium from 7:30 pm. The match is being played at a time when IPL is entering in a very interesting phase. All the teams are slowly finding their best combinations and there is more understanding seen between the players.
KKR are back from a heart-breaking loss against CSK in their previous match. Fats-bowler, Pat Cummins along with Andre Russell put up a spirited performance with the bat while chasing 221. KKR at one stage in the match, were 31/5 after 5 overs. From there, to take the team so close to the target must have boosted KKR's confidence despite a loss. With the arrival of Sunil Narine in the team, it is being speculated that he will open the innings like he used to in the previous editions for KKR.
On the other hand, RR must look to improve their performance especially in batting. Jos Buttler and David Miller, the two star overseas players must step up to the occassion.
The head-to-head performance of KKR and RR puts KKR ahead of RR. Kolkata has won 12 matches out of the 22 played so far between the two franchises.
